On Monday, Alexander Skvortsov of Russia’s Roscosmos space agency, Nasa’s Drew Morgan and Luca Parmitano of the European Space Agency donned spacesuits and climbed into the Soyuz MS-13 space capsule serving as a lifeboat at the station to steer it to another docking port.

The move is intended to help the repeat docking attempt of the Soyuz MS-14 that carries a Russian humanoid robot called Fedor.
